Mine is on a usb 24 inch extension hanging in a window at all times. I hang it in the same window plugged into a 5w wall charger for an iPhone and it acquires signal just fine. I was reading the gps faq and noticed the hdmi issue. I am running a monitor as well and just cleaned up my cables yesterday. We will see if coiled cable management makes a difference. I left it running all night and after an update and reboot this morning everything came back online just fine but I am also not using the hub right now. If I let the gps acquire signals first then plug in the hub everything stays working If I reboot with the hub attached seems to be when I loose communication with the gps (or rather it looses satellite data - gpsmon and others are empty for a satellite list). I will test more later with the hub and reboots and see if I can reproduce the issue.
